Abstract
Dynamic behavior of structures subject to vibrations is monitored with light coupled into a single multi-mode optical fiber positioned within or on the structure. Vibration caused strain or deflections in the structure are detected by interference light signal intensity variations caused by differential phase changes in the transmission modes. These intensity variations are optically detected to provide an electrical output. Actuators may be positioned at the vibration nodes of the structure and energized by signals derived from the electrical output signals to suppress the vibrations.
